325i question

[Fushion_Julz]

Still want a Golf Mk2 Gti...

There is a chap lives around the corner from me...he has a Mk1 golf fitted with a 16v 1.8 mk2 motor...I'll ask him if he's interested....

hey war on v'dubs not v-tecs

honda's are cool, it'l be a different story racing the v-tec
325i vs vti (would love to see stock standards battle)
who needs gti's

my old gruppy goat of a 325i (wich i adore and don't now the accel differance to face lift invites mk2's)

vti eg vs mk2 gti (sorry bye bye gti)

Sounds like a great plan, not in a 'I've got a score to settle' kind of way, but the fact that must be able to drive pretty well! So it'll be interesting.

Like I say, I've not driven Snett before, so I'll need a few practice laps.

as you come out of the bomb-hole, and the car goes out of shape, make sure you don't bottle it, as right in front of you is a high HIGH tyrewall with a solid earth bank behind it,

(or at least they still had the earth bank when I used to race there in the 1990s)

on a long long scarey right-hander which then runs into the chicane

Apart from that, it's easy

I don't do bottling it!

There's scarier parts of the Nurburgring I would have thought, and I love it!

Have you tried the Foxhole at 120mph? That's scary....

I just thought of something.

Back in the day when I were a lad.
I owned 2x Mazda 323f GTi 16v's, (141bhp), both rolling roaded at 149bhp.
Now, both of these cars would hammer golf gti 16v's, but it couldnt touch a 325i.

as was said before it clearly depends from car to car and HP etc doesn't say much about how a car will hold up in a sprint.Soon it will all be clear

Guy's I offer you the Golf GTi 16v, but with me driving, totally standard, Used to own a tech 1 325i sport back in the day, a local lad was raving on about his VR6 cos they were kinda new on the secondhand market, saw him driving around, so done a 'u' turn, and chased him, and all I can say is he wasn't going anywhere and he was canning it. I also have a Civic VTi - in 4 door form, 160bhp standard, you just gotta wait to go into the VTEC zone 5500 rpm, and it just moves. I also own a Toyota Corolla GT Twin Cam 16v, on a C-reg, 3 door hatch, FWD variant, only pushing out about 125bhp, but very revvy, take off it would have the golf any day of the week, I haven't read the rest of the post yet, so venue etc, not too far from M40 ends.

[Davenotouring]

So we need to get this Trackday booked, I'll be doing so after next weekend at the Nurburgring.

Fal_325i if you don't mind bringing the GolfGTi then you driving it is cool! Of course!

[oguz327]

I think a few golfs and bmws are gonna get spanked

Be interesting to see if i can keep up with you on the ring dave, well on the straights anyway.

[Davenotouring]

Should be fun Oz my man.

Few sighting laps first and then we'll see how we get on.
